• Facts about the Persecutors at Information Industry Department's No. 5 Research Institute in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province

  2007-02-20
  When the persecution of Falun Gong began, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) regime forced the supervisors of the No. 5 Research Institute to put pressure on their management staff to execute the CCP's draconian policy. The management staff unwillingly carried out the cruel persecution towards the Falun Gong practitioners. Some practitioners went to Beijing to appeal to the government. If they were still employed at the Research Institute, they were threatened to be dismissed from their posts. If they were retired, then their pensions were reduced. For the first three months, they were given no income, and during the following six months, they were only given a total of 200 to 380 yuan, which is much lower than the basic amount needed to cover the average living costs for Guangzhou citizens.

• First Hand Experience of Cruel Brainwashing at the Beijing Women's Forced Labour Camp (Part 5)

  2007-02-19
  When you, as a practitioner, are tortured to force you give up your belief, this is a test: Will you have anger inside your heart when you see that other detainees are showing off and dumping their leftover food into the rubbish bins on purpose or depriving you of your meals in front of your eyes while you don't have enough food to eat? Will you still be indifferent and care little about your physiological desires when you see in front of your eyes that other detainees are chewing and enjoying the charcoaled chicken and sausages on purpose brought from the shop inside the labour camp while you're not allowed to buy anything from there? Will your heart still be peaceful when you are forced to stay up all night long under the surveillance of the collaborators and the guards while others are sleeping soundly?

• First Hand Experience of Cruel Brainwashing at the Beijing Women's Forced Labour Camp (Part 4)

  2007-02-18
  After the persecution started, I went to appeal on July 21st, 1999. My employer, the Foreign Trade Ministry of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), tried to force me to give up cultivating Falun Dafa, so that I could be "on the same page" as the CCP. My family also tried to convince me. My oldest brother was the most active of my three older brothers. My father, a history teacher, cooperated with him. Once, they suddenly locked me up in a room and tried many ways to force me to give in. My father used many historical stories about how people had been wrong. My oldest brother is a provincial civil minister. He is in charge of persecuting Falun Gong in that province. He knows clearly the CCP's plan to eradicate Falun Gong. They thought they could save me from disaster and stop me from ruining my reputation and losing profit or ruining my family.

• Atrocities at the First Shandong Provincial Jail

  2007-02-17
  For a long time, the "jail orientation team" at Division 11 was especially used for persecuting practitioners. The guards used criminals to carry out the forceful "transformation" of practitioners. If they did not give up their belief, they were beaten or abused and subjected to all kinds of physical punishment. They were not allowed to sleep for 24 hours or go to the toilet. Practitioner Mr. Zhuang Shijun always rejected the "transformation," so they tortured him physically for a long time. They forced him to sit on a hard wooden stool with ridges and to squat on his heels for a long time. They did not allow him to sleep or even yawn. If he did, they beat him.
